Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Drain sweetcorn. Thinly slice onion. Cut zucchini into 2cm chunks. Finely chop or crush garlic. Slice lemon (see ingredients list) into wedges. Cut bacon into 1cm pieces. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook bacon, corn and onion, until golden, 5-6 mins. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 min.

2

• Stir in zucchini, arborio rice, water, crumbled chicken stock cubes (1 cube for 2 people / 2 cubes for 4 people) and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to the boil. • Transfer risotto to a medium baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 mins.

3

• Meanwhile, wash and return frying pan to medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds until light golden, 2-3 mins. Set aside.

4

• Remove risotto from oven and stir through butter, Cheddar cheese, pesto and a good squeeze of lemon juice. Stir through a splash of water to loosen the risotto if needed. Season to taste with pepper. • Divide risotto between bowls and top with flaked almonds. Serve with remaining lemon wedges.
